[Intro:]Lido missed the boat that day he left the shackBut that was all he missed, he ain't comin' back

[Verse:]At a tombstone bar in a juke-joint car he made a stopJust long enough to grab a handle off the topNext stop Chi-town, Lido put the money down, let her rollHe say, "one more job oughta get itOne last shot 'fore we quit it"One for the road

[Chorus:]Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh....He's for the money, he's for the showLido's a-waitin' for another goLido, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh....[1: He said] one more job oughta get itOne last shot, [1: 'fore 2: then] we quit itOne more for the road

[Verse 2:]Lido be runnin', havin' great big fun 'til he got the noteSayin' "toe the line or blow it" and that was all she wroteHe be makin' like a beeline, headin' for the borderline, goin'For brokeSayin, "one more hit oughta do it"This joint, ain't nothin' to itOne more for the road"

[Chorus:]Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh....He's for the money, he's for the showLido's a-waitin' for another goLido, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh....[1: He said] one more job oughta get itOne last shot, [1: 'fore 2: then] we quit itOne more for the roadInstrumental break:
